    No worries. Snakes generally don't (and in fact shouldn't) eat while in the shed cycle, as it's a taxing time for them that takes energy and moisture to accomplish, which btw, make sure the humidity is bumped up in his enclosure at this time if it isn't already to ensure the shed goes smoothly (80% or so). To put it in our perspective, imagine wearing very tight-fitting clothes you have to squirm out of over the course of a week or so. You probably wouldn't want to eat a full course meal during such an ordeal either.

    And keep in mind, BPs can, and often do, go months without eating at times, so a few more days without food won't do him any harm.
